What the job involves
- Join a team building the Service Mesh and Ingress Gateway load balancing and proxy platform
- The Microservices Platform Service Mesh team is building a highly scalable and distributed load balancing and gateway service to front all customer traffic coming into Salesforce
- We provide simple declarative interfaces for L4/L7 load balancing, TLS termination, end-to-end encryption, along with support for richer traffic policies such as blue/green deployments, access control, etc
- We are looking for people who can drive the design and implementation of the next generation Ingress Gateway control plane and data plane
- We intend to transform our current software stack to adopt more cloud native primitives to build a more reliable, scalable, and feature-rich service mesh
- Our software stack is based on leading edge open source software like Envoy for data plane and Istio for control plane
- The opportunities to enhance the capabilities of the OSS software and contribute back to the community are immense
- The team has already made active upstream contributions to the Envoy project
- We intend to transform the way our north-south traffic is secured, load balanced and proxied before entering our core service mesh
- We are looking to add experienced distributed systems engineers who are passionate, hungry for new challenges, can step up and own large areas of that vision
Our take
Salesforce is a global cloud computing company, best known for its on-demand, comprehensive customer relationship management (CRM) solutions. The company was launched to mitigate the doubts that business owners felt regarding third party companies holding their data.
By providing essential, customer-oriented CRM software, Salesforce places itself at the heart of digitised businesses. Furthermore, by building out its AI capabilities, the company removes the complexity of AI, enabling any business to deliver smarter, personalised and more predictive customer experiences.
Due to the continued innovation offered by the company, over 150,000 companies, both big and small, are growing their business with Salesforce today. Despite a tumultuous 2023 filled with activist investors, a boardroom shake-up and the unprecedented step-down of Co-CEO Bret Taylor, Salesforce continues to close several acquisition deals and managed to drive up its stock value by 96% from the end of 2022 to 2023.
